The Royal Palms is a Spanish Mediterranean Estate par excellence. Its one-hundred sixteen casitas and guestrooms serve as an oasis for guests seeking tranquility and solitude amidst a truly remarkable setting.

The hotel is poised within the Valley of the Sun, in the beautiful Phoenix / Scottsdale resort community. Camelback Mountain, to the north, provides a striking visual backdrop. During the hotel's recent multi-million dollar restoration, architect Don Ziebell captured the integrity of the original 1929 mansion, by incorporating numerous architectural details to maintain an overall sense of authenticity and coherence.

The attention to detail is stunning. The grounds feature whimsical stone walkways, manicured courtyards, hidden gardens, tinkling fountains and exotic foliage. Entering the mansion through huge mahogany and iron double doors, guests feel as if they have entered a lavish private residence, with plush sofas and chairs, a thick Turkish rug, tall, French windows, a wood burning fireplace and fresh flowers at the check-in-desk. An antique wooden table offers chilled lemonade and copies of The Arizona Republic to guests checking in. A trompe l'oeil Oriental rug in tiles greets guests in the entry zaguan. It is a grand reception, those first few steps into the hotel, and one that captures in microcosm the splendor of the Royal Palms experience. This is no ordinary establishment.

Conveniently located between the prestigious Biltmore area and popular downtown Scottsdale, Royal Palms is ideally situated for business and leisure travelers. The Phoenix International Airport lies only fifteen minutes from the hotel. Museums, golfing and outdoor recreation activities are all minutes away.

What Lodging Hospitality Magazine observed about the Royal Palms as a whole applies in a particular way to the hotel's gracious guest accommodations.
